How selling to us works
1. Tell us about the house
Share the address and what you know about its condition, occupants, and timing.
2. Review the written offer
We give written cash offers in 24 hours. You get the offer and terms in writing before you commit; closing is through a title company.
3. Decide what works for you
Read the terms, ask questions, and compare them with your other selling choices. Call us or use the form to start a conversation about your Harrisburg property.
Compare your selling choices
A direct cash sale is one option. Compare its written price and terms with preparing and listing the house or selling on your own. Include repair bids, selling costs, your payoff, and the bills you would carry while waiting.
Use the Harrisburg home-sale net proceeds calculator to change planning assumptions and compare an estimate with what you might keep from a listing. For current city-level market measures, see the Harrisburg market report.
If the house is rented, read selling a tenant-occupied Harrisburg house for that situation.
